Dashboard Phone Mount | Magnetic or Clamp for Tesla Model S & Model X Refresh

This is probably the endgame phone mount for my 2022 Palladium Model X. I bought the magnetic charging version. Mounting the bracket was a little tricky / tight due to the fitment on my particular Model X, but I'm pretty sure it's not going to fall out. I managed to break the shaft with the ball mount when installing, Iliya shipped me a new one after a brief email exchange (thanks for the great support!). He said he made some adjustments, and the new shaft does seem to fit better than the original. The OBD connector for power is a nice way to avoid having cables running all around the cabin. The Model X has a plastic panel next to the driver's leg where the Model S has some carpet, so a little improvisation was needed to tuck the cable out of sight. The magnetic mount feels strong and so far I have never been afraid the phone was going to fall off. Charging works, admittedly I didn't measure the charge speed. The only downside compared to some other phone mounts is that the phone is basically fixed in location, and the only adjustments you can make are to pan and tilt. Not a problem for me, but something to consider.

Prior to this, I'd been using a Jowua Qi magnetic charger for a few years (admittedly not their newer Qi2 version). It's not bad, but it's definitely not designed for the Model S/X...the position of the phone is awkward and blocks part of the screen. Also, over time the joints and sliders of the mount have loosened, so the phone doesn't stay in the same place all the time. Finally, there isn't a convenient way to run the charging cable to a USB-C port on the car.

I also experimented with a non-charging vacuum suction phone bracket (one of many import products), but the suction cup never held well on the curved surface of the Model X windshield.

Basically this is the only phone mount I've found designed specifically for the Palladium S/X, and for me it's working way better than anything else I've tried. Definitely recommend this.

Twraps weee amazing to work with. I asked if they had a version of phone mount that included power. They did not but they released this kit right away and I was able to purchase.
Kit mounts great and powers phone awesome.
In kit is included surprise OBD2 to USBC connector. Plugged that in under steering wheel and this provides very clean power install providing power to the mount/phone from the OBD. Super awesome.

TWRAPS is an outstanding company that truly delivers on quality. Their products are well-designed, durable, and exactly as advertised.
Iliya was incredibly helpful throughout the process, providing excellent customer service and ensuring all my concerns were addressed.
It’s clear this company stands behind their products, and their commitment to customer satisfaction sets them apart. Highly recommend!

Excellent company. Great customer service. There are limited options for a cell mount in the Tesla Model S that work and are effective. This mount is excellent. And the company has great install videos and support. And customer service is A++++.
